Living in a metropolis like Los Angeles definitely has its perks. Today street style photographer Scott Schuman from The Sartorialist (no surprise here that it's one of my fave blogs...Map That Outfit!...) will be signing his self-titled book at The Beverly Center in West Hollywood.Needless to say, I want to go. However, there appears to be another book signing today--one which unfortunately trumps yours, Scott. And that would be by Jeff Kinney (New York Times bestselling Diary of a Wimpy Kid series). Two of my kids will be attending this highly anticipated event and I, of course, will be accompanying my children. Perhaps I'll get lucky and be able to juggle both signings...break away for a work thing...pick up Big Sis...do homework. Maybe dinner.It is becoming routine on Sunday to pay a visit to the famed flea market at Fairfax and Melrose which the LA Times notes "is great for browsing the bazaar or hunting the bizarre." My daughter and I bought dresses we absolutely adore. AND, the whole family is benefiting from my additional purchase of two gorgeous, slightly mismatched wood benches.

i honestly want to move to california, just for those amazing flea markets (and opportunities for the satorialist book signings!)
xo
I'd go see the sartorialist - forget dinner!
Flea markets always have the best finds! I still haven't found a good one in Portland, but here's hoping!
you're a great mom:)
can't wait to get my hands on this book!!! hope you made it to both signings!!
I really want to visit these LA fleat markets, they look so fantastic! What a bummer you missed the signing for The Satorialist, isn't it always the way though that you can't be everywhere at once! Happy weekend to you :_)
I love a good flea market. I haven't been to one in years though. There's nothing like getting that great 'find' at one!
sounds like you're going to have a wonderful day! that flea market looks fantastic.
love that flea market...my daughter and I go there when we are hitting the Farmer's Market...Have you been to the Rosebowl Flea Market yet? Have a great day!
